not sure,
but i think there may be a slight difference between early and late cars?
not actually noticeable untill you connect them up and i think the oil or alternator readings sometimes do not work properly????
but might just be the ones that ive had???

Re: Vinyl wrap
any more info on the 7K car? would love to know more about it. The standard vs modified question will go on and on..... I do like modified / personalised, but obviously standard is the gold standard. However, both are equally important. if you can retain good examples of both then it keeps the car a...

Re: Vinyl wrap
£1500 sounds about right for a full wrap.
looked into this a while back....
cheaper than a repaint, but doesn't last so long.
would love to see a before and after, if it gets done.....
i have seen a car wrapped badly, and it wasnt pretty,
so important to see some previous work if possible.
